Has anyone opened a can of Pillsbury biscuits and didn't use the entire can and freeze the rest?  Or keep in fridge a day or two?  Is this possible and safe to eat afterwards?

@ScrapHappy. I'd bake the whole can, then freeze or refrigerate the extras.  Don't try to keep the dough, it gets funky.

I know the dough does not freeze well...as for making a couple of them and putting the dough in the refrigerator, I don't think that would work but I don't know that for sure. Why don't you just buy a bag of Pillsbury frozen biscuits? You can make as many as you want and they bake in the oven in about 20 minutes.

I have frozen the raw uncooked biscuits.  I baked them and they did not rise as high as freshly opened  biscuits.  Flavor was fine.

I was just remembering using cheap can buscuits to make donuts.

 

Just take a cutter to remove the center. Then fry them in oil about half the depth of the biscuit. Can sprinkle with powdered sugar or make sugar and cinnamon or honey. 

 

The kinda remind me of a sopapilla.

 

Another use of can biscuits is for dumplings.

I don't believe you can freeze the raw dough. I agree in baking all and then freezing them after baked.

Freezing can affect the leavening, but I've never tried it so I'm not sure if it would mess up anything else.

Cookie dough is much different than a refrigerator biscuit dough that has leavening ingredients in it. Frozen bread dough is processed to be frozen. These are all three different items. 

 

Id bake all the biscuits and freeze the baked goods or buy bagged frozen biscuits and just use a few at a time as someone suggested. I SHOULD do thatas once i make a batch of buiscuits, i have no self control 😳
